Balance Game

Understanding and really enjoying equations is not an easy task for young learners. Equations seem hard. And the concept seems incomprehensible for many children.

So how can a teacher or educator make this vital part of any mathematical learning experience more fun and easily accessible for young minds?

With this balancing game, there is a new way to demonstrate how equations work. The fun pictures will pique the interest of even those who feel like mathematics is not their strong point. It invites to play and learn at the same time.

The Balance Game is made up of a simple concept: two libras are set as a default – these are the known variables. A third one needs to be “found out” – ie. put in balance. The possible solutions are given below the question. Children will not even notice that what they are doing is mathematics, because different areas of the brain are stimulated: the pictures are colorful and fun, while the problem solving skills that are necessary are easily obtained, even if the mathematical skill is not yet far advanced.

By working through these problems, children understand that in order to balance the scale, both sides must be equal to each other. This lays vital groundwork for understanding how equations work in general. It also showcases how symbols are used in mathematics (x or y representing a number – the pictures representing a “weight” that needs to be balanced).

Due to the fact that the solutions are offered in a multiple choice format, there can be little confusion about how to play the game and this encourages children to try out different possibilities, which helps their self esteem.

This game is a great brain teaser, is it takes the mind off a purely mathematical train of thought and involves a creative approach, which children will appreciate.

Teachers and educators can easily create their own balance games. There are over 8000 images in the galleries to choose from, and teachers can even input their own pictures into the software to create individualized results. Categories such as pets or fruits can be kept as such or mixed and matched together to create a crazy and fun landscape for children to explore.

It only takes a few minutes to put together a balancing game, and they are easily adjusted to any difficulty level. By utilizing custom images, teachers and educators can directly target their children’s current interests (Popstars, Games, Superheros etc). This will create an even more inviting tone for the children and they will love to find how to balance their favorite pet with wild animals, for example. There can be up to 3 different variables utilized, which means children have to actively think through the problem.

Teachers and educators can access these Balancing Games easily and can create new games all the time. The software is easy to understand, it does not take a lot of learning or experience to create these games and use them in worksheets, tests or as a fun “distraction” within a class.

Fri, 29 Jun 2018 08:44:01 +0000http://poweringkidslearning.com/?p=1527Snake Words is a fun, inventive and educational new word brain teasing game for children of reading age. It can be used in a classroom setting, or explored on the child’s own terms. Snake Words is the crossword reinvented, with a child friendly twist added to it.

Ssssnake Words

Snake Words is a fun, inventive and educational new game for children of reading age. It can be used in a classroom setting, or explored on the child’s own terms. Snake Words is the crossword reinvented, with a child friendly twist added to it.

Games with words are among the most popular games in society. Successful and widely enjoyed examples such as Scrabble show, that there is something uniquely amazing about having fun with putting one letter after another and see it be transformed into a word or a phrase.

This is especially important for children who are just learning to read and write and recognize letters and words.

Snake Words offers a fun and imaginative new take on the concept of word creation. Pictures are placed below the snake, and the name of the shown object must be written into the Snake above. This increases the child’s communication skills, understanding, and enhances cognitive perception skills.

Various Snakes of different lengths are lined up and filled with letters to form phrases, words and exciting concepts. This means, that children will understand vocabulary, the importance of putting one letter after another and the basics of spelling rules while enjoying their quirky playtime with a funny, multi-coloured snake.

This can also be set up on a larger scale in a classroom setting. Here, the educator can set multiple snakes up and have the tasks solved in a team effort. Another possibility is to have the children in smaller groups, where each snake forms a word which then can be put together to create something larger.

These fun and easy exercises are also easily integrated into an existing exercise routine or curriculum. There are no limits to what can be done here, as this concept can also be adapted for educating in a second language.

It can also be used as a tool across disciplines as word groups for other non-lingual subjects can also be easily integrated. For example, a biology class could utilize these Snake Words in order to portray different animal groups, or a history class could use the exercise to showcase figures in history.

The task or recognizing the picture and then having to find the name and spell it, all the while focusing on correctly creating the proper sequence for the letters stimulates multiple groups within the brain and gives the child a wholesome learning experience. Teachers and educators meanwhile are able to easily identify where a child may need additional help.

The software allows teachers and educators to easily create their own Snake Words without having to spend hours painstakingly trying to design something unique for their classes. All that needs to be done is to input the pictures, the software does the rest and helps to create ever more fun Snake Words.

We have worked with lots and lots of teachers and educators to create ever more interesting apps and ways to make learning more fun, and apps easier to create. Through our efforts, we have achieved success in enriching vocabulary games and brought about new ways of developing fun games with words for children.

Fri, 22 Jun 2018 16:19:21 +0000http://poweringkidslearning.com/?p=1520You cannot afford to avoid the social media because it has come to stay. Allowing your child to use it comes with its advantages and disadvantages. This is the reason why we highlighted the benefits to show you the positive part of it that can be put to great use to motivate children to learn better.

So, it is best to take the “bull by the horn” and ensure that your child uses the app that has YouTube trends to foster relaxation, confidence, responsibility, smartness, and helpfulness in every way possible while improving the child’s grades at the same time.

Do you know that more than half percentage of children living today; have an online social network by the age of 10[1]? This implies that a lot of young children are gaining access to social network at a young age. By this, they become more exposed to people, situations and content they may find difficult to handle at the long run.

Nowadays, it’s hard to limit these underage ones to use the internet, because you might not be with them all the time. However, you must ensure that your children use the internet beneficially for learning, if they have to surf the internet.

These days, we witness huge media consumption by kids, especially videos from YouTube produced by many influencers. Many of them have kids horde for followers, and kids consider them as their idols. It is quite common to see kids waiting for their YouTube “rockstar” for hours with patience. Can’t believe these are kids? Same kids that lose their patience span in other situations within minutes, not hours like in this case of waiting for a selfie with an influencer or getting signature. Influencers are true YouTube trendsetters for kids and have a huge impact in their world.

Keep reading if you want to learn how your child can be motivated to learn with YouTube trends in an app.

Benefits of YouTube Trends in an App for Children

No doubt, you may be afraid to allow your children to use apps that have popular videos. However, there are ways it can be beneficial to your children:

It Helps Them Feel Confident

The YouTube trends in an app help your child feel at ease when communicating with people around. When they watch the videos, it makes them feel less shy and gain more confidence. This is because the video is educating them about their environment.

Hence, they feel confident defending themselves in whatever environment they find themselves. In other words, an introvert child or one who feels strange around other people builds confidence. The child also stands a better chance of understanding how to communicate with people when using the app with influencer videos.

It Informs Them

Sometimes, children’s assignments and research work may be difficult. In this regard, the app with influencer videos helps to inform them of what they need to start working. This makes work easy for them.

It Makes Them Feel Helpful

It would interest you to know that Iowa University carried out a research. The research found out that games involving social platforms can promote better behavior. It also encourages tolerance and makes them more helpful.

Most children tend to be empathetic and compassionate. They could feel the need to protect their friends and share with them. In a case, where a child is aggressive, the app with popular videos assists to reduce aggressive cognitions.

Hence, when children use the app to play educational games and watch influencer videos, it makes them helpful.

It Helps Them Feel Smart

A recent survey carried out by globe and mail showed how social media is making kids smarter. The e-learning foundation also carried out a research. It showed that children with access to the internet at home get higher grades.

Apart from improved social skills, the app with popular videos helps enhance cognitive abilities. Examples of such cognitive abilities include critical thinking, memory, problem-solving skills, and comprehension.

With this, children will determine useful information with ease.

It Helps Them Feel Relaxed

The app with influencer videos has a way of reducing stress. This occurs when the app provides an outlet by which children express their frustrations, fears, and disappointments.

The app also serves as a means of distraction that helps children get over stressful experiences.

It Makes Them Feel Welcome

When a child uses the app with popular videos, it makes the child feel he or she is part of something. This is because the app has proven to build the self-esteem and confidence of the child. Hence, the sense of responsibility of the child improves.

It also helps the children relate with what they love and have experiences they would love to share with people around them. This helps children feel welcome in whatever environment they find themselves.

Bottom Line

You cannot afford to avoid the social media because it has come to stay. Allowing your child to use it comes with its advantages and disadvantages. This is the reason why we highlighted the benefits to show you the positive part of it that can be put to great use to motivate children to learn better.

The important things to do as a parent is to ensure you monitor children’s online activities. Because the joy of most parents would be to see that their children perform with excellence and learn with speed.

So, it is best to take the “bull by the horn” and ensure that your child uses the app that has YouTube trends to foster relaxation, confidence, responsibility, smartness, and helpfulness in every way possible while improving the child’s grades at the same time.

AFFILIATE PROGRAM FOR TEACHERS (beta version)

Keeping and Enhancing Innovation Rhythm

Innovations are generally not always good. We need to recognize the idea of an innovation and intent of the innovator. We have observed over time that many innovations end up negative due to lack of proper analysis before consideration. Sometimes it could be a case of the innovator trying to show off for social recognition but in the long run, no value is added.

Before any innovation is created it is important the innovator identifies a problem and takes interest in solving it.

We see innovations from another point of view.

Whenever we see an opportunity to add value, we seize it immediately.

Children are very versatile and they tend to study and learn like sponges from their environment. It is quite difficult to target personalized learning and keep it changing because kids’ interests keep changing. That is why we came up with the educator’s software as palette, and artist color palette.

The educator’s palette is for teachers. It has a “mix and paint” function that enables teachers to create imaginative lessons. This is the reason why we are introducing affiliate program. We want to channel teachers’ creativity to others. It’s like a cherry on all our innovative games we’ve made in last years.

Why Are We Talking About Education Innovation?

We are introducing something big that allows teachers create apps, share and sell. Finally the opportunity to earn money online and quick is here. So if you are a teacher that has been in search of the best approach to raising kids’ interest and teaching them values, will it not be nice to sell and earn at the same time? If your answer is yes, then this is for you.

We came up with the AFFILIATE PROGRAM (Beta version) that would help teachers put up their creativity while teaching kids. The software allows you make your app and share it with your class or other teachers or sell it to your peers. It also allows promotional sale of other collegues apps and earn money from your promotion.

The lesson plans are done on your personal computer but you have to be online as everything takes place online. It will interest you to know that our affiliate program helps you track your author and affiliate commissions. These commissions are then reported on the affiliate page.

What Program Does This Innovation- Affiliate Program Solve For Teachers?

As teachers, the affiliate program makes it much easier for you to earn. The affiliate program helps you personalize your app. That is, create an app that is unique to you. When this is done, you show teachers and your students. Since you are a teacher, the app created would be an educational one.

This makes it beneficial to both your students and fellow teachers. It would interest you to know that your app can extend to parents that love teaching their children in the easiest way possible. The app would make learning easier and promote the interest of kids. Hence, there is so much in it for you as a teacher from making the learning process easier to make the teaching process easy as well.

This, in turn, promotes rapid learning. So when you choose our affiliate program, everybody gains immensely from it. It does not end by enhancing the learning process because, in the process of promoting your app, it is been purchased. Once this happens, you have automatically earned money.

This whole process occurs from the comfort of your home or school. It requires internet and a personal computer. This means it is cost effective and stress-free.

Another amazing part of this is that you work at your own pace which makes you your own boss. As a teacher, anytime you are free you can simply swing into our app and earn money.

Do you have a website? If your answer is yes then it is high time you use it as an avenue to promote your earnings. All you need to do is copy and paste your link into your website. This automatically promotes the product to other people so they can click your link.

When your link is clicked, people will be redirected to where they can view your app and make a purchase. This makes you earn as well.

Is The Affiliate Program For Only Teachers?

Since we are a company that aims at enhancing the process of learning for kids, we came up with the idea that would not only make learning easy but teaching as well.

Our affiliate program is definitely not for teachers alone. It is open to any individual that loves teaching and making the process of learning fun and easy.

We direct our affiliate program to teachers because they teach on a daily basis and they may have students that find it difficult to learn fast. Hence, the implementation of the app solves that problem and speeds up the rate of assimilation.

Is Registration For The Affiliate Program Difficult?

The process of registering for our affiliate program is as simple as ABC. We will guide you through the steps that you require to start up.

Below, we have highlighted steps on how to go about creating your first app once you have registered and start making sales from it.

]]>4 games you MUST play with your children – If you want them to think like a computer geniushttp://poweringkidslearning.com/development-computational-thinking/
Wed, 04 Apr 2018 17:59:14 +0000http://poweringkidslearning.com/?p=1077We are revealing and presenting 4 cool games we've created that can be easily used to foster computational thinking in early childhood. It is easy to create them and they require a minute or two to be set-up. Games like Sets and Processes are valuable even for creative thinking and can't be found anywhere else. Judge for yourself their value.

Development of Computational Thinking with Games in Early Childhood

We are going to show you 4 nice games we have invented. These games can be used to promote computational thinking in early childhood with ease. It takes few minutes to set it up. Games like Processes and Sets are valuable because they are productive for creative thoughts. They can’t be found anywhere else. I urge you to be the judge of their values.

Think Creative Like a Coder

First of all, let us give you an idea of what computational thinking is about.

Thinking computationally has nothing to do with programming or having thoughts like a computer. Like you all know computers do not have the ability to think.

There is a difference between computational thinking and programming. Programming refers to set of instructions given to a computer to tell it what to do and how to go about it while computational thinking helps you know exactly what to tell the computer to do.

Computational thinking enables us to take a difficult problem, break the problem down and find possible solutions to the problem. Then we show the solutions in a way both a human being and a computer can comprehend.

Computational Thinking

When it comes to computational thinking, BBC education guides have shown 4 different methods and they include:

Algorithms- this involves coming up with steps of solution to a problem or rules to follow to tackle a problem.

Pattern recognition- this involves searching for what is common among problems.

It is important you note that we don’t give all named techniques in form of games. We only select the ones that fit into early childhood computational thinking development and infuse original methods.

This is a sample of how our games combine computational techniques for algorithms and pattern recognition:

Pattern recognition- pattern recognition

Cryptograms, game processing, operation with sets- algorithm

Now that you know what computational thinking in kids entails, let us take you some questions that are been asked frequently:

But Why Should We Bother About Computational Thinking In The First Place?

“Computational thinking” according to the United Kingdom Association is a compulsory skill that must be taught to kids if they are prepared for working effectively in this digital world. This is the reason they infused it into the curriculum for primary school teachers.

Suggestions seem to gather that employment opportunities in the future are likely going to be swallowed up by the engineering and digital spheres. Our economy as well is not left out of this as most sectors of our lives rely solely on continuously evolving software setup.

Must Kids Learn Computational Thinking?

When I was a child, I used to go everywhere with a notebook that I used to write down ideas. I had so many things in my head from inventions to story plotlines and craft projects. But I had problems being an executioner. I felt overwhelmed to write a whole story because I know where the best place to start was. This problem is not new to me. You may have observed that your kids go through the exact problem. Are they full of ideas and they don’t have a clue of how to carry out any of them? Does doing their homework seems like too much hard work? Then it means your kids are naturally inquisitive but they don’t have the characteristic process of structuring their thinking.

Computational thinking is one of the problems solving processes. The challenges they face may change, the steps of the processes are constant so there won’t be any form of guessing at where to start.

It structures their thinking. Kids will be able to tackle problems in a productive way and plunge into finding a solution. You can simplify opportunities for your kids to learn the reliable approach for solving problems.

Computational thinking helps expose your kids to learn technical skills. It gives them the opportunity to discover and have a full grasp of the whole world which eases the learning process. The process looks like this:

Break problems into bits.

Find a pattern that is suitable.

Abstract out patterns effectively.

Create the best algorithm.

For instance, if your kid is trying to create Hopscotch game where the hero dodges hindrances and gets points for getting the cheese. Knowing where to start may be confusing at first but if computational thinking is applied, they would know the first thing to do is to break down the problem in bits: the background, the hero, the obstacles, the cheese, and the points add up.

Designing a game may seem like just a creative activity but when computational thinking is applied, it structures the thinking of a child and influences their integral curiosity. Kids will love the new toolsets available for them to solve difficult problems by themselves.

Cryptogram games

This involves images of animated gifs replacing letters in word and numbers in mathematic equations.

Kids have to apply rules. This game has images that symbolize an alphabet hence, the kid is meant to find out what the order of images stand for and write down the words the images represent. It is a new style of Egyptian hieroglyphs but with custom images representing an alphabet. The images are bold and attractive algorithms that help kids solve the mysteries.

A lot of teachers in the kindergarten have raised kids to make their own letters and implement their personal secret coding to it.

This also applies to the cryptogram letters and we made cryptogram numbers the second version of the cryptogram game. There are rules where images signify numbers. The algorithm is used in mathematics equation to help kids practice algorithms and subtraction in the same game.

Processes

The idea behind this game is to show the process of how an output looks after the conversion of the input when it is processed. It may seem hard but it is quite simple. We are going to illustrate that in our example. The rule shows the input sequence ABC, it passes through a lab, measuring a jug that has chemicals in it and gets the result CBC.

The process rule simply works when the sequence ABC passes through the jug of chemicals, the letter A is omitted and replaced with the letter C with no changes in the second and third letters which is evident in the answer CBC.

The same rule applies to the algorithm pineapple, aronia, banana which is the sequence. When it passes through the jug of chemical, the sequence of the fruit is processed and the output will be banana, aronia, and banana in the empty cell on the right. This shows the chemical converted the pineapple to banana.

Processes are shown with images like boiling pot, chemicals or explosion etc. this is because process represents things in our lives that bring about significant changes to the structure of what is put inside. In this way, it is a good exercise to engage the mind of kids by showing them images they love and push them into the world of processes.

We have made several versions of process games that involve one, two and three step processes. The two and three step process game are a bit more tasking than the one-step process because the result is not so obvious and a lot of rules need to be applied in the right order.

Operations with Sets

Operation with sets are usually boring from elementary school especially when questions like “what are mutual elements?” were asked or characters, letters, and numbers were used as elements in exercises.

This is why we decided to come up with enriched set games that have images. With the use of images, operation with sets got easier and interesting. It can be applied from kindergarten. The game provides the following:

We all remember operation with sets from elementary school or higher grades, and they were quite boring… what belongs into which set, what are mutual elements, and etc. Boring, boring, boring because elements used in exercises were characters, letters, numbers…how can this be exciting?

This is the reason why we have enriched sets game with images. With images, operations with sets got totally new meaning and can be applied from kindergarten. Game provides:

Algorithm thinking with a rule.

Small successes with guessing elements one after the other.

A kind of abstraction providing images in a new environment and mutual co-relation.

Learning about joins, inner joins, outer joins etc.

Operations with Sets

Recognize patterns

It is a standard game where a pattern is defined and a child is expected to continue in the pattern. One simple example is with cars shown in the picture below. It is the AAABBB pattern.

In Conclusion

Computational thinking for kids is a very fun way to tackle technical skills effectively and enable them executes their ideas effectively without getting unnecessarily overwhelmed by a challenge at first.

Mon, 12 Feb 2018 09:34:58 +0000http://poweringkidslearning.com/?p=955Wouldn't you like to make in a few minutes engaging and fun anagrams for kids with adorable images and videos as rewards? It is more than easy with learning app generator - Gabriel's Seeds.

Wonderful World of Picture Anagrams for Kids

Unless kids show linguistic (verbal) intelligence(1) it might be hard and frustrating for them to develop spoken and written language, as well as ability to spread vocabulary themselves in early childhood. In this post, we're going to guide through visual enrichment of word puzzles anagrams with images that can be automatically generated for better children motivation in classrooms.

An anagram is a word or phrase formed by rearranging the letters of a different word or phrase, typically using all the original letters exactly once.(2)

As already stated, some kids just don't buy so easy plays with words. To love dispersed or cutely shaped random letters... It is a boring game, except you have linguistic intelligence. Something has to be done, in the manner of sweetening wording assignments, because anagrams have great potential in intellectual development. It would be a loss if anagrams wouldn't be used in early childhood education.

Here is an idea how to use boring game strengths for our benefits, using visualization as additional help. If anagrams have great, intriguing images as additional help... they would raise children interests in no time. Images are a great bridge between interest and goal. Here is an example. First word puzzle

means nothing to most of the kids. But second,

makes a difference. Without a doubt, the second one is a winner. All we did, just added an image of interest and all child has to do is to type offered letters. If it is a boy, especially playing with toy cars, adopting letters will be done in s snap.

Furthermore, an additional idea, anagrams consist words matching current child play. For example, favorite play with physical cars can be prepared in anagrams like car model in background and letters randomly placed in shapes or layouts in front. Wow, this would mean current child play has just taken another form of play. Turning what kids love into what they learn. We have enriched children play with assignment we consider is great for future skills.

The final idea, include using picture anagrams in classrooms. It is a kind of classroom gamification but with purpose and help for students and teachers. Picture anagrams are helping classroom tools for teachers if used aligned with lesson plans. Teachers might even catch additional so much well-deserved break during working time :), just invented this term. Picture anagrams are helping classroom tool for students because they see the purpose, of word assignments and fun at same time. Here is an example how to develop fruit vocabulary

Kids just have to click on right anagram represented with image above. With approach of mixing word puzzles with images it is easy to imagine how picture anagrams are applied with fun in any classroom (K-3) embedded in lessons about nature, or ELL, ESL and EFL.

Anagram Creator

We have prepared many 5 types of anagrams in our Anagram Creator:

Boring anagrams with only letters, all letters are typed;

Anagrams with image in background, all letters are typed;

Anagram with image in background and one missing letter, missing letter needs to be typed as an answer;

Anagram with image in background and one surplus letter, alien letter needs to be typed as an answer; and finally

Anagram with image and several letters mixed words as answer options.

It is easy to build them, within minutes, take a look at our 3-minute video tutorial.

Anagram creator has built-in gallery of over 8000 images and 700 terms and step by step explanation in the video tutorial. If you are not satisfied with vocabulary gallery for anagram apps, import own images and sounds that will be embedded in word anagram games.

Mon, 15 Jan 2018 10:53:05 +0000http://poweringkidslearning.com/?p=886Children creativity can be ignited easily with for example proper ideas, acts or tools. We've found the way for teachers to make their lessons much more interactive, and help to nurture the creative skills that kids will be able to draw on for their entire lives.

Why Creativity in the Classroom Matters

Every child has the ability to be creative- but that ability needs to be nurtured and coaxed out of them in order to have the best effects. If a child’s creativity is stifled, then he or she may experience emotional or educational problems down the line. If it is encouraged, though, then creativity becomes a vital part of the child’s development, helping them to express their thoughts and feelings, as well as get along with others. In this article, we’ll talk you through some of the most important effects of encouraging children creativity in children, as well as how you can do you bit to help them along their way.

First things first, creative expression in children- and adults, for that matter- often comes along with a surge of emotion. You’ll often find that toddlers and younger children express themselves through play, making up games and activities which help them to make sense of the world around them. The same thing goes for older children, too, since they are able to express their thoughts and feelings through things like art, music, and drama. Instead of keeping themselves to themselves, they are able to show their true colors to the world, and thereby feel more confident in themselves. There’s simply no better way to encourage healthy emotional development than through creative expression, and the earlier this starts, the better!

Creativity is also a vital part of communication, too. Sharing creative experiences creates strong bonds between individuals, so it’s a valuable way for children to make friends and be more sociable. What’s more, since emotions are such a key part of creativity, it also helps them to learn empathy for others. By thinking about things from other people’s point of view, not only are children encouraged to be kind and caring, but it also gives them essential teamworking skills, too.

However, creativity isn’t something that just happens on its own. It needs to be nurtured- and that’s where Gabriel’s Seeds comes in. By using videos, pictures, and animation in class, you are able to put what’s known as “gamification” into practice in your lessons. As the name suggests, this involves turning tasks into something more akin to a game, making things much more engaging and fun. Not only does this ensure that your lessons capture your pupils’ attention, and encourage them to take part, but it also engages with their creative side. Instead of feeling like school is just reading from books and learning things off by heart, you’ll be letting them think outside the box, and get those creative juices flowing from an early age.

Our software is easy to use and customizable, so we can deliver exactly what you need in the classroom. It is the perfect way for teachers to make their lessons much more interactive, and help to nurture the creative skills that kids will be able to draw on for their entire lives. It also allows lessons to be more pupil-led, so that you can discover where their passions lie, and work on these to get them more engaged with their subjects. In short, it’s an extremely powerful tool with limitless uses- so why not try it out in your classroom today!

Tool Dedicated to Teachers Searching Inspired Learning

In several occasions, beautiful and original songs didn’t manage to become hits right away, and nor did their variations performed by other artists and their producers. But, after a while, such a song manages ends up being a real masterpiece, reaching success and becoming a hit. This may be due to the song’s new tempo, used instruments, parts added to the old version of the song, singer, and so on. But, the truth is that these details are not that important, as the most important thing is that, after all, a variation of that song managed to produce a significant impact on people. Regarding its success, it is almost impossible to tell what triggered it, especially in the beginning.

To add to this matter, do you know the story of Columbus’s egg? The story presents the fact that no one knows how to make an egg stand straight. Then Columbus comes along and, after slightly crushing the egg at one of its ends, the egg manages to stand without any help. Thus, everybody knows now how to make an egg stand. So, as you can see, a small detail can make a huge difference.

I’d like to draw a parallel between introduction and education. I am not a teacher, but I believe that, in many occasions, teachers are left with the impression that children are not paying attention to their classes, therefore, not achieving “success” in education. It must be a rather frustrating experience to see that, in spite of being an involved and enthusiastic teacher, you do not get proper feedback and don’t see the results of your hard work.

Maybe lessons should be treated in the same manner as the egg in Columbus’s story. Maybe one slight variation is all you need to capture the attention of kids in class. Creating an inspiring lesson is not such a difficult challenge, as introducing small details like certain images or videos added to the existing lesson, may be just the thing that will make the difference. Most certainly you will find quite a few great articles that talk about the fact that cute illustrations are currently overrated, as children react better to real images, and most importantly how to provide additional value for teachers where giant educational resources fail in our post. This way, their attention is grabbed instantly and their efficiency during class is improved.

But if this method actually works is something that only a teacher can find out. You need to try both versions and see which one delivers the best results in the case of your children. Everybody is different, so while some children may react great to cute pictures, like funny clip art, others will prefer real images instead. In other words, if some like see the cartoon version of a lion, others will enjoy more a real photo of a lion or even a video where they can see it roar. Something unexpected, and you won’t know which one is best unless you try.

Therefore, teachers need proper teacher tools to “experiment” or, better yet, to quickly adopt a new method. Do kids like their lessons better with the help of images, cute illustrations, videos, gamified apps, or anything else? To try all these options and create better lessons, you need EDU LAB. This is a tool that will allow you, the teacher, to rapidly personalize your ideas regarding a lesson and to adjust educational methods according to the needs of your children, which provides great results, especially in the kids’ early childhood.

The idea of having so many possibilities may seem frightening, but this really gives you the chance to play with ideas and test them for real, something that was not available until now. It all depends on how this teaching tool is used, to create better or worse lessons.

If I’ve learned anything in my life is that you can never know what to expect and when finding the right solutions, you need to adopt it fast.

Filling Gaps of Edu Giants with Cloud Technology

Article by Matt Gomez about things he did not like on Educational Resources Hub http://mattbgomez.com/i-dont-like-tpt/ was a trigger to make this post.

Let's start from the beginning about what resource hubs for teachers are. The most immanent representative is teacherspayteachers.com (TPT) followed by Teacher’s Notebook, BetterLesson.com, and ShareMyLesson.com, A to Z Teacher Stuff, The teacher's corner, Lesson Planet and etc., where teachers can find free or paid pdf lessons.

They are all great educational resources (ERH) and online hubs that are relatively spread among teachers, although it is not the best thing teachers can have, regardless if we are talking about kindergarten teachers or primary school teachers. All teachers should use methods that help them stir the interest of children in what is happening in the class, while allowing them to retain information, and, having all these in mind, hubs have disadvantages despite many advantages. As a teacher, you should be aware of these disadvantages and know that there is a way to solve the issues raised. But first, let us take a better look at the disadvantages.

Everything comes in a PDF format

PDF formats are great because you can open them by using any kind of devices, with software that can be downloaded and used for free. But when you would like to change the content, then a PDF will start to be problematic. As a teacher, you probably know that every class of children is different and has its own needs. Thus, content that is made for general use is not such a good option as it may not reach some of the children in the class. Most certainly you would know how to adjust the content so that your kids get the most of it, but that’s impossible when you’re working with PDFs. And ERH provides everything in a PDF format, so that the content cannot be changed or altered, which can be quite frustrating for a teacher that wishes to offer exceptional classes to children, tailored to their needs.

ERH material becomes dull and overused

We all know that teachers, in spite of their noble profession, don’t have big wages. So when they end up spending a couple of dollars on a unit that is meant to help them in class, they will like to get as much as they can out of it. Thus, the unit ends up being used year after year, class after class, and not because the material is so great or the children love it, but because it cost the teacher money out of his or her pocket and they are relatively easy to be used. While we all want to enjoy easier jobs, we would also like to have some flexibility when it comes to the materials we use. Children, as much as teachers, appreciate diversity, so coming up with something new in class will definitely manage to attract their attention and make them want to invest some effort into the class.

Cute activities are not enough

While children are attracted by nice visuals, this is not enough to make class activities interesting and enjoyable for children. Bubbles, little owls, or polka dots may seem interesting for toddlers, but not for older children. Some teachers said that this kind of fonts stir no enthusiasm among most of the children in their class, as they believe that many don’t even notice. So basic a particular activity on cuteness, as ERH does, is not enough to have successful classes. Children love having their mind and creativity stimulated, which is not going to happen when using cute fonts on class handouts.

Real pictures vs. clip art

Clip art may have been attractive to children 10 years ago, but that kind of images don’t work in our times anymore. Children these days are more impressed by real-life images and we are talking about showing them images with elephants, sunflowers, and so on, something that TPT does not provide. It is worth having in mind that the world changed a lot, and so did the needs and preferences of our young generation.

Now that we tackled the disadvantages of ERH, we shall continue by talking about the solutions to all of these problems. The best part about these solutions is that they can all be found in one single place and we are talking here about Gabriel’s Seeds. At Gabriel’s Seeds, we noticed the shortcomings of using ERH, deciding to offer a better teaching method that will ease the load of teachers and make children more interested in the class. So, here are the solutions to the downsides of ERH.

The content and structure of a lesson can be changed anytime and in any degree

The software we provide is meant to provide teachers the freedom they need when composing lessons for their classes. As mentioned earlier, each class has its own set of needs and requirements, so it can be extremely helpful to be able to adjust the standard lesson in such a way that it will become suitable for one class’s needs. Thus, with this software, the teacher is not stuck to teaching things in the same old manner over and over again, as he or she has the possibility to make adjustments as considered.

A wide range of cute pictures and real-life images available

Because the software is made to suit the needs of children of all ages and of the teachers that are taking care of them, it provides both cute pictures and real images. So, depending on the lesson that it is going to be presented in class, you can choose to use high-quality images of animals, objects, nature, and more. We even provide combinations of illustrations and images, so all you need to do is find the option that works best in your classroom.

A very generous gallery is at your disposal all the time

The image gallery is quite large, providing no less than 8000 different images to choose from. But, this doesn’t mean that you are limited to using those images alone. You can easily bring in your own images if you consider them more suitable for the class. Besides images, feel free to add videos as well, as they are also supported by the software. So, as you can see, you have the freedom and flexibility you need to come up with outstanding classes which you can change and adjust according to the needs and preferences of your children.

It is easy to fill gaps if the solution is structurally supported in the core of Information System from the begging. For Gabriel's Seeds it is easy to fill the gaps of educational resources for teachers.
